At their October meeting, the Hamilton Township Board of Trustees approved multiple resolutions and motions. The transcript records the following outcomes.
Resolution 25‑0917A — Increase appropriations and declare emergency: The board approved a resolution to reconcile the road levy fund so the township can pay a large, six‑figure invoice to a paving contractor. The administrator explained the emergency language prevents a 30‑day referendum delay. Roll call in the transcript recorded Mister Cordray and Mister Sousa voting “Yes.”
Resolution 25‑0903B — Private sale of unneeded police property: Trustees authorized the private sale of three police vehicles, each not to exceed $2,500; the motion passed with affirmative roll‑call responses.
Resolution 25‑0917C — Request speed study on Harrison Road: The board approved a resolution requesting the Warren County Engineer and ODOT conduct a speed study; staff explained the county performs the study at no cost to the township and that any signage costs would be the township’s responsibility.
Resolution 25‑0917D — Approve GMP #2 with Conger Construction Group: Trustees approved GMP #2 for the Public Works replacement facility (see separate article for details). The transcript records affirmative roll‑call answers from Mister Cordray and Mister Sousa.
Roster amendments: The board approved amendments to the Hamilton Township roster as presented.
Notes on vote tallies and procedure: The transcript records roll‑call confirmations of 'Yes' from Mister Cordray and Mister Sousa on multiple items; the recording does not consistently capture the third trustee's named roll‑call response. Where votes are shown in the transcript, they are listed above. Motions were moved and seconded during the meeting; the transcript frequently records only the motion and a generic 'Second' without naming the mover or seconder.
